Marvin High Jr., 58, was fatally shot in the early evening of June 8, 2025, in the 3300 block of Bardaville Street in Lansing. Police and fire personnel found High with gunshot wounds shortly after 5:38 p.m.; he was taken to a local hospital and later pronounced dead.

Investigators said the shooting was not random and within days identified two people believed connected to the attack. On June 11, Lansing police announced the arrests of 34-year-old Ross Coats of Eaton Rapids and 32-year-old Nicole Blowers of Lansing. Authorities say the dispute began over money Blowers claimed High owed her and that Coats allegedly produced a firearm and shot High multiple times. Coats and Blowers reportedly fled on a motorcycle after the shooting.

Both have been charged with open murder and related weapons offenses. A judge denied bond for Coats; Blowers’ bond was set at $70,000. Does anyone have information about Marvin High Jr., the incident on Bardaville Street, or the people involved?
